WWDC 2005 tis O'er
Ahhh, the magnificent week of WWDC 2005 is over. I cannot say specifics about the conference, but it was very worthwhile for me even though I am not a developer. I got to go to sessions about Core Data and learn how easy it is to write a database program without any lines of code.
This past week involved waking up an hour before my 7 34 alarm, walking to the Moscone Center (unless I was around when the cars were leaving from where I was staying with my very excellent hosts, my Aunt and Uncle), spending a day watching people talk about Apple stuff, talking to people about Apple stuff, eating, and eating, and eating, and taking a cab back very late at night. It was, to say the least, tiring. You never think just sitting down for that long will tire you out, but it does. But now, it is over, until WWDC 2006
I am looking forward to, hopefully, getting to go again next year and see Leopard introduced and some new Intel based Macs. And, you know, everyone is making a big deal about Mactels, but it is no different that saying "Apple will have faster more efficent computers in a year," that is an assumptions. For everyone but developers, it means nothing; for developers it means a few hours of work, or in reality 5 minutes.
And now, I am going back to Camp for the rest of the summer. An odd mix of computer conference to outdoors camp, but I am excited, as I should be. I am a lucky person that I get to experience all these things. Onward Danny!
